Ok, fair enough.

I suggest that you add a more explicit statement about this to the
proposal, that can be useful for future similar cases. Maybe something
like

 "In general Apache accepts only voluntary contributions and avoids
hostile forks. In this case, given that the community is demonstrably
dead, it seems fair to fork the existing code at Apache to allow a new
community to work on it. Once incubation starts, we will send a
message pointing to the new home to the OpenSOC support group".

Which might overlap with existing text but looks more reusable to me.
